engaged with the theory and practice of film as you are with words.
Screenwriting is Filmmaking provides a wealth of insights for new
and experienced writers alike on the historical, theoretical and
practical essentials of screenwriting. With clear analyses drawn
from a wide range of classical and contemporary films, alongside
case studies and practical exercises, this book encourages the
development of craft skills and a personal voice through the
writing of short and feature screenplays. You will learn how to
develop your screenplay from idea to final draft; apply the
techniques of narrative, structure and visual language; build
rounded and convincing characters; craft compelling scenes through
dialogue and sub-text and maintain a meaningful and lasting
creative practice. Brian Dunnigan draws on over thirty years'
experience of writing, teaching and making films, to provide a
practical guide on how to become an effective screenwriter as well
as giving a fascinating insight into visual storytelling and the
place of the screenplay in the collaborative process of filmmaking.
